  • Providing Regulatory Compliance guidance specifically in respect to our AFSL and Corporations Act obligations to all functional areas of the Pacific tribe to empower the tribe to implement new products that meet our regulatory requirements.
  • Building upon our existing horizon scanning and regulatory change management program, ensuring effective communications of regulatory changes to the business as well as timely implementations in line with our mission.
  • Enhance our regulatory compliance control framework for growth in the Pacific, including enhancement of the regulatory risk (non financial crime) measurement and monitoring tools, preparing management information for reporting to the local Risk Committee and Board.
  • Regulatory training based on needs assessment with areas carrying concentrated regulatory risk, and created for functional teams.
